Corda's body seizes up as the paralysis takes hold. The ghouls fail to resist Vishanti's channeled energy and are seared by her power.
Round 2: Corda (paralyzed), Morgor, Eldan, Ghouls, Vishanti, Derika
Eldan drops his crossbow, draws his rapier and strikes.
;
Skirting around Derika, Morgor launched himself at the remaining ghoul.
The remaining ghoul lashes out at Derika, given that the fox was hardly decent prey and the witch was subdued for the moment.

Round 2: Corda (paralyzed), Morgor, Eldan, Ghoul, Vishanti, Derika
Growling as it claws and bites into her, she shrugs off the effects of it's poison once again and swings her hammer again.
After smacking really good once, she swings her hammer back around to send it crashing into it again as she's fueled by her rage.

Derika crushes the ghoul's skull, sending it sprawling.
Vishanti's heart stops for a fraction of a second as she watches the vile undead viciously maul her love. Then she sees that flash of anger, the dragon rage that sent others fleeing when they were exposed to it. Even as she breathes a sigh of relief, she watches as the creatures body is literally smashed apart.
Turning her attention to Corda she moves over to the witch, frozen where she stood, her eyes taking on a golden glow as she studies her life force.
Vishanti determines that Corda is fine except for the minor scratch and the fading paralysis. Derika is a bit more wounded but otherwise fine. The two soldiers are dead...for the moment.
"The paralysis is wearing off, you will be alright in a moment." the shamaness says to Corda, resting a comforting hand on her shoulder for a moment. "Are you alright love?" she asks Derika.
She nearly growls, "That son of a bi+<h bit me, so I smashed his fu<king skull in!" Finally feeling the bite and claw mark she says a little more calmly as she takes some deep breaths, "As long as you're okay, I'm okay." She says as blood flows from her wounds. Looking over at the soldiers she says, "Damn bastards....I don't think we can bring them back. We're gonna have to make sure they don't come back as ghouls though." She says as she lifts her hammer high over her head and smashes in their skulls in turn so that there's no hope of them becoming undead.
Nodding as Derika destroys their heads, Vishanti scans the immediate area as Moldovina flies a wide circuit around the former battlefield, scanning for any further enemies, a nimbus of starlight trailing behind it.
Once able to move, the Witch went over to Derika and place a hand on her shoulder. A glowing light spread over the Half-Orc, sealing the bite and restoring some of her vigor.
Giving Corda a nod she says, "Thank you, that feels a lot better." She looks around for a few seconds as she tries to figure out where Renault and Gaston would be, "We need to find the Captain and Gaston and figure out where we're mist needed. It seems as if the ghouls have finally breached the wall."
Vishanti sees three packs of ghouls moving through the town. One is headed to the market district, the other toward the soldiers' barracks and the other to the residential area. Unfortunately, given their distance, you can only intercept one group.
"There are three packs of ghouls moving through the town! The market distruct, the barracks and people's homes." she says, her expression telling Derrika there was no way to get to them all.
She shakes her head and curses, "The merchants can run, the soilders can at least fight back....but those in their homes have no idea the danger that's headed their direction. Let's head off the bastards heading for the homes."
One thought came to mind, Taliya. Without even thinking, Corda bolted towards the residential area.
With a nod Vishanti starts running as well leading them after the group of ghouls headed to the residential area. She'd be damned if they let those monsters get the people of their town.
S@$& She thinks before running after Corda and Vishanti with Eldan on her heels.
You intercept another group of four ghouls, these ones looking a little better armed. They draw their weapons.

One of them manages to hit their target, grazing Eldan with a bolt.
Round 1: Eldan, Creepers, Derika, Vishanti, Ghoul, Morgor, Stalker, Corda
Holding out one of her hands she sends four blasts of blue energy at one of the undead.
Holding her ground beside Derika, Vishanti raises her hand, a silvery glow pulsing in her palm as a thin stream of what looks like moonlight lances into the same creature her partner strikes, as she draws her sicle with the other hand.
Derika's spell strikes unerringly true, but Vishanti fails to hit with hers, as the ghoul's quickness saves it from being hit. One of the ghouls approaches Eldan and slashes at him.

Running at the undead filth directly in front of her she twirls her hammer before bringing it down and across the wretched thing.
Vishanti steps up beside Derika, again unleashing a wave of life energy to wash over the creatures.
Some of the ghouls resist Vishanti's positive channeling, but it proves too much for the one that Eldan had been fighting. The unarmed ghoul sidesteps and attacks Eldan.

In a veil of white mist, charged forth a wolf, with fur black as night and eyes glowing with crimson desire to sink its teeth into one of the Creepers. With fierce fangs it lunged for the things exposed leg.
With the Wolf Summoned, Corda raised her hand and closed it about a forming dagger of pure magical ice.
Eldan attacks with another flurry.
